Abstract
Objective
To compare intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) measurements obtained from an intragastric Compliance catheter with the pressure measured directly in the abdominal cavity.
Design and setting
Prospective cohort study in an operating room of the Ghent University Hospital
Patients
Seven patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Interventions
IAP was obtained from both an
intragastric catheter and directly from the peritoneal cavity at 1-minute intervals in patients undergoing elective cholecystectomy and compared using Bland-Altman analysis.
Measurements and results
In 156 paired measurements obtained from 7 patients the mean difference between IAPgastric and IAPref was 0.12 ± 0.70 mmHg (95% CI 0.01–0.23).
Conclusions
IAP measured using an intragastric Compliance catheter reliably reflects the reference IAP in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
